Part 1: Creating a Heightmap
Part 2: Creating the Texture
Part 3: Creating the Landscape in Truevision
The tutorial presented here is optimized for an 8×8 landscape and with the best quality in mind, not performance. Even so Truevision performed with a pretty decent fps in my middle grade computer, especially version 6.5 beta. All the code presented here is for VB .NET but you should have no problem converting it to you language of choice.
